Douluo Continent: This Tang San is different

Chapter 312 The Aura of the Golden Ancient Tree

After boarding the ship, Dugu Yan was puzzled as to why the fallen ones who were being killed did not resist. When Blood Sword Norman killed his own kind, they had also noticed signs of resistance from the other fallen ones, but there was none here. So she asked, "Could it be some kind of fanatical faith?"

"Possibly." Tang San nodded and used the Holy Spirit Cult as an example to explain to the two the madness of those evil soul masters.

"The Holy Spirit Cult?" Yu Tianheng exclaimed. "I never expected that Mu Tian would become a Fallen One. He clearly has good talent, so why would he need to pursue the cultivation methods of the Fallen Ones? He even calls himself an Evil Soul Master. He must be out of his mind."

"Perhaps he lost his composure." Looking back now, Tang San believes that Mu Tian's downfall was probably due to realizing that Austin Griffin was residing in his Clear Sky Hammer, which drove him mad... But he can't be blamed for that; it's not up to him to decide what Austin Griffin chooses.

Moreover, if he were Austin Griffin, he wouldn't choose a brainless protagonist like the overpowered protagonist, because people with this kind of personality, if they don't have absolute power, will get into countless troubles and create a lot of unnecessary troubles for their development and growth.

"Is he jealous?" Yu Tianheng agreed with this view. "On the field, Mu Tian's eyes were indeed full of jealousy when he looked at you. If he really fell because he felt inferior to you, then his heart is really fragile. He not only harmed himself, but also damaged the reputation of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

Although there is no relevant negative information on the market at present, Yu Tianheng understands that this is because Ning Rongrong is close to Tang San, so the Spirit Hall is just giving the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School face.

Otherwise, news would surely spread across the continent, such as "The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is actually raising evil soul masters!", "The leader of the Holy Spirit Cult is actually a disciple of Bone Douluo!", and "Bone Douluo's true identity is also a Fallen One!" and so on, becoming increasingly outrageous.

Rumors are as fierce as tigers. Once they spread, if the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School tries to deal with them, people will say things like, "See, just as I thought!" "I knew the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School wasn't a good guy!" "They're feeling guilty!" and so on.

When a bad person does a good deed, countless people will praise them.

Conversely, when a good person does something bad, no one remembers their past good deeds; instead, they relentlessly hurl insults at them, as if doing so would demonstrate their righteousness and nobility.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School appears to be a good organization, so no bad things can happen in public.

This applies to all the major powers on the mainland. If such an event were to occur, they would certainly try every means to cover it up and avoid ruining their reputation.

In the past, things were alright, but now information spreads so rapidly that people from all sides are less likely to reveal their true colors...

In the blink of an eye, another three days have passed.

The flow of the underground river slowed down, and the space in front of us opened up, nearly a hundred meters above our heads. There were also stone beaches along the edges, and some glowing moss grew on the cave walls.

Gu Yuena turned off the soul-guiding lamp, her eyes flashing with a sharp light, and said, "I smell a strong life force, somewhat similar to that on you."

"I felt it too." Tang San looked up, his spiritual power spreading out and connecting with the core of the Golden Ancient Tree. The purest energy of heaven and earth was directly transmitted through space to the Blue Silver Emperor within his body.

Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan felt a surge of energy, their fatigue from the journey vanished, as if they were not in the dim underground river, but wandering in a vibrant grassland, the air filled with a fresh fragrance.

Gu Yuena, however, sensed something more, realizing that Tang San had established a connection with a powerful life force somewhere at the top, and that Tang San was even in a dominant position.

That aura feels familiar, but what is it?

correct!

Golden Ancient Tree!

At this moment, Gu Yuena felt her whole body boiling, wanting to break through the top rock layer and bring the golden ancient tree back to the Star Dou Great Forest.

With it, the body will recover quickly!

But the thought of returning to her original form made Gu Yuena hesitate. After all, she was reluctant to leave human society and Tang San. If she returned to her original form, would the memories she had experienced in such a short time be comparable to those memories from her long period of slumber? They would probably be diluted and forgotten in an instant, and in the end, she would revert to the rational and wise Silver Dragon King.

This is not the outcome she wanted!

"Let's wait a bit longer. After all, the Golden Tree is connected to Tang San. If we suddenly take it away, I might be attacked by the fortune of the entire continent. If the God Realm notices, I'll be in trouble."

Gu Yuena tried to find a reason for herself in her heart, "I need to find a way to subtly influence, follow step by step, and be careful. I can't be too impulsive. After all, Tang San said that impulsiveness is the devil and it is easy to lose your mind."

"I am the embodiment of reason!"

"That's right, that's exactly what I'm doing. It's definitely not to spend more time with Tang San, it's definitely not... By the way, Tang San, who has half of the Blue Silver Emperor's bloodline, is also one of my subjects, so I'm doing this to persuade him."

At this moment, Tang San had no time to pay attention to Gu Yuena's facial expression, which changed from excitement to hesitation, to relief, and then to realization and determination. His gaze fell on a nearby rocky beach with a cave entrance. Next to it was a white gas raft, made from human intestines and stomach. It was filled with gas and blood, and looked extremely disgusting.

Tang San and the others approached the rocky beach and went ashore.

"They have absolutely no humanity." Dugu Yan released a blue toxin onto the gastrointestinal raft, causing it to dissolve and dissipate.

This is Dugu Yan's second soul skill: Azure Scale Poison, also known as Paralyzing Poison.

When used on oneself, it can eliminate pain and enhance defense; when used on other things, it is corrosive, especially to internal organs, where it is most effective.

Furthermore, with Dugu Yan's cultivation over the past two years, she has gained a better understanding of the poison of her own martial soul. When using this Azure Scale Poison, it only has a corrosive effect, without any polluting effect, and will not affect the water quality of the Dark River.

Afterwards, the group went into the cave.

"Initially there were twelve people. Gu Yuena said that five of them were disemboweled and died at the beginning. Later, we found a corpse on the way. So, excluding the possibility that they killed their own kind on the way and dumped the bodies in the underground river, there are at least seven more of them. Three of them are Soul Kings, and the remaining four are Soul Masters." Yu Tianheng analyzed the situation. "Soul Masters are nothing special, not worth mentioning. But we need to be careful with those three Soul Kings, as they have Martial Soul Fusion Techniques."

Dugu Yan said, "However, if it is true, as you guessed, Captain, that the three Soul Kings are so-called clones that can exist for a long time, then we need to find the main body. He may be among the three Soul Kings, or he may be disguised as a Soul Sect and hiding among the remaining ten Soul Sects."

"I'll just use Endless Grassland to entangle them then." Tang San felt the hardness of the ground and realized that the Blue Silver Emperor could take root. He then shared his thoughts, "For me, having more people is actually a disadvantage. As long as we can't uproot the Blue Silver Emperor, they'll just become fish on our chopping board."
